Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs)

Hyperion Bank helps you save to achieve your retirement dreams

You've likely heard financial experts say "pay yourself first." This good advice means that saving for your future should be a priority--and a monthly habit, from your first job through retirement. Even if you "pay yourself" by contributing just a small amount each month, the savings you accrue can help you fulfill your retirement dreams later in life. Sticking to a savings plan, particularly when you start early, is one way to work towards achieving your retirement goals.

Saving in a tax-advantaged Individual Retirement Account (IRA) is a way to make your money work even harder for you by reducing--or even eliminating--your tax liability on the funds you pay yourself. Hyperion Bank offers both Traditional and Roth IRA accounts that are FDIC-insured up to $250,000. You can even open an IRA Statement Savings Account with a minimum deposit of just $50.

Individual Retirement Accounts can be a valuable part of any savings strategy. The federal government established IRAs to help individuals save for their own retirement by offering tax benefits to workers who contribute a portion of their earnings to their own "individual retirement plan." The IRS sets limits on how much you may contribute to your IRA in any given year. There is no minimum deposit amount required to open an IRA. Compare the benefits of a Traditional or Roth IRA, and consult your tax advisor or ask us to help you determine which IRA will best meet your personal tax situation and retirement goals.
